The recent ruling by the European Court of Justice that declared the safe harbor agreement between the US and the EU as
invalid was a great victory for data protection. After the Snowden leaks it became clear that data stored in the US
was not safe from surveillance that would be illegal in Europe.
Many NPOs fight political, humanitarian or social causes for the betterment of our global societies. We want to support these organizations.
All NPOs can get the secure email service Tutanota Premium
with a reduction of 50%, so for only 6 Euro per year.
Today we are publishing a bug fix release that also includes some improvements to the buying process of Premium.
We inform you about every update of the client because after each update, your browser re-loads the client code from our servers.
This makes the update-process very transparent to you and increases your security.
One of our aims at Tutanota is to fight mass surveillance. End-to-end encrypted emails are important to reach this goal.
About 37% of all emails sent from Tutanota are already end-to-end encrypted.
It is one year since we have published the code of Tutanota as open source, licensed under GPLv3. We are happy
about everyone watching our code on Github to make sure that we stay true to our central goal: Protecting the privacy of our users
by offering the most secure email service.
One month ago we have published our first Premium features for our secure email service Tutanota. The number of users upgrading to
Premium is growing continuously. This lets us cover our expenses so that we can continue developing Tutanota independently and with a clear focus
on the privacy needs of our users.
We were rather shocked when we heard about the upcoming Lavaboom shut-down next week. The Lavaboom team was building an
encrypted webmail service similar to Tutanota, which seemed very promising. We express our sympathy for Lavaboom and wish their
team all the best for the future.
Everybody wants your data. Not just the NSA. Google, Facebook, your phone provider, even your torch app and your local store.
Yet, we have to share messages all the time with friends and colleagues, with family and civil services. The only chance we have
that this information is not monitored by default is end-to-end encryption.
We are excited to finally release Tutanota Premium. Upgrade your account to Premium for only 1 Euro per month immediately
and claim a 5 GB extension of your account at no additional cost. This special offer will expire in two weeks.
